Gabe Askew’s Ten By Ten


Gabe Askew’s new video for the song “Ten By Ten” by Bluebrain is a really interesting and well-executed piece, and quite a departure from Two Weeks, the unofficial Grizzly Bear video that he put out last year. “Ten By Ten” is skillfully orchestrated and very graphic – clean and elegant. It’s especially impressive, considering Gabe completed this almost completely on his own with no budget. And the new direction shows that he is still exploring and expanding his craft. Kudos.

Read on for a Q&A with Gabe about this piece. (Sorry folks, link fixed now.)

The Black Dog’s Progress


Deliciously dark is how I’d describe Director Stephen Irwin’s latest offering.

A tragic, darkly animated and powerful journey through the life of one dog as he travels from abusive home to even worse.

On the audio side Sorenious Bonk did an amazing job scoring the soundtrack, creating a truly haunting atmosphere of unease.

Warning: because of the subject matter some folk might deem this as NSFW.

Partizan Lab’s Chris Cairns recently directed this highly entertaining surreal video featuring everyones favourite beat juggling junkies, the Scratch Perverts.

I managed to interrupt Chris’ busy schedule to give use a quick insight into the techniques used to create the video:

We shot the people spinning on turntables at 33.3rpm at high speed and then matched them to the turntables which were working with Serato. The film was made in collaboration with The Scratch Perverts, Foreign Beggars, Shlomo and Will Clarke with sound design by Will Cohen. Post production by The Mill London.
